All hydrogen comes from natural gas. That is a fossil fuel. You are full of
it. Lawrence Rhodes

I don’t believe that government funding of hydrogen or battery zero emission
technologies are a waste - it’s needed to clean the air.
I will refer you to SIP for California to find out why funding has been needed
for battery and fuel cell technologies.
I won’t get into the whether the sizing and scale of EVSE is appropriate,
except to point out that this happens with all technologies.
You are incorrect when you say that hydrogen does not produce greenhouse gas
reductions. The US DOE has run models which show significant reductions, though
those would be US centric. I’m sure Canada has run similar numbers. The problem
is that your assumptions have generally all been incorrect.
Sorry, but I’m sure you will understand when I say that I won’t refer anyone
to your book. I haven’t read it, but if what you’ve peddled here is a taste, I
have a better reputation for providing people with straightforward and accurate
info.
